NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Curiosity rover has found unusual rocks near Pahrump Hills on Mars. This image shows a curiously round rock, about two centimeters across. Similar spherules, nicknamed 'blueberries,' were found by the Opportunity rover. Scientists are still investigating what caused their rounded shape, possibly tumbling in water or solidified molten rock.
